I don't know about the others, but I played a few Sona games and once you get Frostfang I don't feel crippled in mana issues anymore.

The base mana regen buff +Frostfang mana regen buff helped a lot.

I think Zyra is going to need some more help, though; she still has major mana problems, imo.

Honestly, I take your word for it as a fellow Sona player. How is it when you get Frost Queen, btw? 150% sounds really nice.

It feels pretty nice tbh. Unless you're constantly spamming W you won't go oom. Heck, you might even be able to if you go another mana regen item, since I was going an AP Support build (Eye of the Wathchers, item 3117 or item 3158 / item 3100 / item 3041 / item 3089

Eye of the Watchers is pretty nice, since you don't have to worry about Frostfang wasting a slot anymore, and you're still buildling up gold.

You can take Mobis if you take Stormraider's Surge, or Lucidity if you take Windspeaker's Blessing (this is really good on Sona since she gets the benefit of both the shield and healing increase +some resistences)

Also Dark Seal building into Mejais is really cool, you only have to spend 400 gold to start stacking assists for AP (or securing kills hue).

Sheen costing less helps a lot, and Lich Bane getting CDR is really nice, too.

I'm thinking about trying an actual Support build and see how much she benefits from Windspeaker's Blessing without much AP. I'm thinking ( item 2049 eye of the watchers, item 3222 , item 3117 , item 3190 , item 3050 , item 3065

cookies dont restore mana over time, thats terrible advice. They only restore like 20 mana or some REALLY low amount of mana.

Chill.. they're making compensation in base Mana and Mana Regen scalings. Plus, masteries are being buffed and likely will add more Mana Rgn and the such.

Just gotta wait.
